No. Or, more exactly, the difference in size will be small enough to
not justify the effort to create it. At least, this is the answer
which has always been given on these lists by the developers, for years.
If this has changed lately, all the better!
 

This is a dumb objection. You can/have to get portable openoffice just
once. And you can do just like you are doing with OpenOffice, ie, in
your words:
 

So, if the problem is only how *you* can plug your USB drive in
somebody else'se windows computer and run the Impress presentations on
that drive _yourself_, just put also portable openoffice on it
(without any packing, zipping etc...) and use it to run the
slideshow. That way, it will also be publicity for OO.o, since the
participants will see the real thing in action.

If you want to _distribute_ the presentation instead, then try to
convert it to Flash as others have suggested and if it works forget
the .exe route (I don't know how complete Flash conversion is, never
used it myself).

Ciao,
Marco

[discuss] DBCS() or JIS() function on Excel

Posted: 12 Oct 2006 08:01 AM PDT

Hi, Paul and all

Hmm, that's quite strange that what you mean differs from Eike's report.
We have to continue our efforts to collect helpful information about
this problem.

According to Microsoft Office Website, the name of the JIS() function
depends upon the language you use. In addition, the functionaility
might differ from Japanese version.
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HP052508381033.aspx

Anybody especially who has other localized versions of Excel, I wonder
if you could tell me what the name of JIS() function is in your
localized version and how the function works.

Regards,

There are several areas you can help in. I would recommend the QA project

reproduce bugs.
